SHERIFF'S PROCLAMATION
TO FOREIGN-BORN RESIDENTS
"I, Job L. Garland, Sheriff of Fulton County, deem it wise in the present
crisis, in this fo.mal proclamation to assure all residents ot foreign birth that even
m the event ot the United Mates becoming actively involved in the great European
war, no citizen of any foreign power, resident in FultonCounty, need fear any inva
sion of his personal or property rights so long as he goes peaceably about his busi
ness and conducts himself in a law-abiding manner.
"The United States has never, in any war, confiscated the property of any
foreign resident unless by his own hostile acts he made it necessary.
"1 take this formal means ot declaring to all foreign-born, residents that they
will be protected in the ownership of their property and money and that they will
be free frcm personal molestation, so long as they obey the laws of the State and
Nation and the ordinances of the County.
"I urgently request that all our people refrain from public discussion of
questions involved in the present crisis and maintain a calm and considerate atti
tude toward all without regard to their nationality."
Let it be understood that every citizen owes undivided allegiance to the American flag,
that he is expected to loyally fulfill all obligations which citizenship and residence impose
upon him. and that ahy act however slight, tending to give aid or comfort to the enemy is
treason, tor which severe penalties are provided in addition to that punishment which public
opinion inflicts upon the memory of all traitors in all lands

DOW FAR IS KNOBSYILLE.
Not So tar That the Statements of
Its Residents Cannot Be Verified.
Rather an interesting case has
been developed in Koobsville.
Being so near by, it is well worth
publishing here. The statement
is sincere the proof convincing:
J. C. Fore, Koobsville, Pa,
says: "A severe cold settled in
the small of my back. My kid
nevs troubled me badly at times
and the kidney secretions were
painful in passage I was lame
and stiff from rheumatic twinges
and my limbs and wrists became
swollen. I got no relief from the
doctor's treatment. Finally, I
used Doan's Kidney Pills and
after one box.l felt relief. When
ever I take cold now and am
troubled by my kidneys, Dnan's
Kidney Pills always help me."

Pleasant Motoring Trip.
Last Friday after the dinner
dishes had been washed, ex
Judge and Mrs. Peter Morton,
their daughter Miss Joan, their
sons McKinley and Peter, Jr.,
and Miss Nellie Palmer tucked
themselves away in the Judge's
new touring car, and headed it
northward. The weather was
ideal, and the car kept rambling
along without showing any signs
of weariness or stubbornness. In
turn, Burnt Cabins, Shade Gap,
Orbiaonia, Mount Union, Hunting
don and Alexandria were passed
and when they pulled up in
front of the residence of Forest
er T. Roy Morton at Petersburg,
Pa,, Judge and his wife got out
of the car to give the youngsters
a little more room and to enjoy a
little visit in the home of their
son.
As the sun was still high in
the heavens, the young people
drove on to State College, where
they spent the time very pleas
antly until Sunday morning, when
they returned to Petersburg,
took dinner at Roy's, picked up
Judge and Mrs. Morton, and re
turned to McConnellsburg via
Huntingdon, Saxton and Everett,
getting home in time for the
boys to go to church in the eve
ning. When they reached State Col
lege, the Speodometer showed
that 116 miles had been reeled
off in the run that afternoon,
and yet, it did not seem half bo
far.

Women Not Discouraged.
Although defeated in their at
tempt to have the Legislature
to give the voters of the State an
opportunity to decide the ques
tion of woman suffrage, women
of Pennsylvania are again before
the House asking the members
to give them directly as much
suffrage as is in their power,
namely, presidential suffrr..:e, or
the right to vote for all presiden
tial candidates. The bill was in
troduced by representative Lex
N. Mitchell of Jefferson county.

Liquor interests, having been
indicted for violation of the cor
rupt practices act and charged
with raising an enormous slush
fund to influence elections in the
campaign of 1914, have consider
ed it unwise to face trial. They
have entered, to all intents and
purposes, a plea of guilty. It is
reported that they have avoided
a public trial fearing that certain
pro-German activities in which
they have taken part would be
exposed.
In the meantime the newspa
pers in general are being bom
barded by these identical liquor
interests with literature in op
position to war prohibition. They
who struck at the soul of the
country now cry for mercy.
The Farmers' Side or It.
One day last week, while com
menting oh the tons of so-called
advice the farmer is getting to
day, an Ayr township agricult
urist took occasion to say that
it would have been well with
this country if the farmers' pro
tests and advice of recent years
had found lodgment in exactly
the same spots from which the
hysterical advice is being hurled
at rural people to-day. Despite
the attractions that lured the
country boys and girls to the
cities, the farmer has made this
country the granary of the world
and the condescention plainly
visible in much that has been
written reflects ignorance of
true conditions out on the farm
where real intelligence averages
higher thnn in citi 8. The av
erage critic does not know of the
net-work of obstacles that must

be overcome to put farming on
its most capable footing.
Two Remarkable torses.
About forty-seven years ago,
there was foaled somewhere in,
the State a colt. Seven years
later, she became the property
of Rev. J. L. Grove, who was
then pastor at Worthington, Pa.
When this mare was fourteen
year 8 old, Mr. Grove brought
her to McConnellsburg and used
her until she was aoout twenty.
He then Bent her to a farm and
she raised a colt. This colt
"Dolly" is as gay, hearty and
willing to-day as at any time in
her life, although she will be
twenty-two years old in June.
It will be seen that with the ex
ception of a short interval while
the present "Dolly" was cutting
her teeth, two horses served Mr.
Grove for a period of practically
forty years and both were sound
and amply able to perform their
work when "pensioned on the
farm" by their owner.
Education is the foundation on
which one's life work depends.
